Oh IgorStrav - nothing would have stopped my grandma from wearing her best, even in rural Saskatchewan - regardless of the mosquitoes!! The only time I remember her covering up was to prevent colouring her lovely skin - and of course when it was chilly and then she usually chose fur. Her youngest sister is still alive (86) and still laughs about her sister's proclivity for fancy shoes - and apparently she had many pairs.
